Not seeing representation made me feel invisible and I wanted to share a vision of fantasy that represented me, my friends, and the love in our community. “My own journey with my gender and sexual identity is part of the story I tell. I don’t need to tell this audience that we traditionally get written out of history, but something we may think less about is that we aren’t written into fantasy either,” Lady Clementine explains. “I grew up obsessed with fairytales and princess stories but I never saw representations of queer POC in the stories I loved. Furthermore, the video is a creation of visual importance that Lady Clementine sorely saw missing in media as a child. “Clementine Season” introduces the artist’s aura in the format of fantasy, surrounded by communal light and love with fae babe friends, played by artists Brandon Nguyen Hilton, Kelley Alexander and photographer LaRue Calliet (whose stunning work is featured in WUSSY Vol 6). LCFP is indeed a warmth and sparkle that glistens with femme energy and the music video brings a conglomeration of glowing gorgeous serenity, opening with divinely dressed characters lavishing in a spring dream picnic fit for goddesses. “It had been such a tough year for humanity, to the point where I couldn’t watch the news, and I wanted to make music that would feel like I was giving people a hug, especially women, POC, and the LGBTQ community.” “I had been doing the singer-songwriter folk style ever since I started playing music on the scene a few years ago, so I decided to completely change it up and play with pop vibes,” the artist recalls. With a twinkle of twang and 60s ye-ye, Lady Clementine, who is the angelic voice and composer of LCFP, created the project in Fall of 2018 during a slight musical rut.
Lady Clementine’s Fantastic Party brings you a first glimpse into the picturesque wonderland of two fresh tunes, “Clementine Season” and “East Coast”, a seamless merge of sweet stories and a glimmer into the talent and imagination of this upcoming Atlanta-based indie project set for great heights.
